State Of Mind Lyrics - Bernard Crystal

It used to be easy, now I'm doin' my time 

Workin' so hard I got a pain in my side 

Runnin' up a hill tryin' to catch my breath 

Nowhere to go when I need some rest 

Where do I hide, take me away 

From this lonely state of mind 

I've got to say, it's time to play tonight 

Oh, I've been thinkin' that I'm not living 

But it's only just a state of mind 

Time to roll the dice, close my eyes and let it ride 

Oh, I've been thinkin' that I'm not living 

But it's only just a state of mind 

I've been doing my best but there's one regret 

That I live in this state of mind 

My phone machine's beeping and it's hurting my head 

Twenty-eight messages, I said 

People come and go like a thief in the night 

Taking my heart, stealing my time 

Papers and dreams, what does it mean 

When I'm in this state of mind 

Polite as I seem, I want to scream inside 

Oh, I've been thinkin' that I'm not living 

But it's only just a state of mind 

Time to roll the dice, close my eyes and let it ride 

Oh, I've been thinkin' that I'm not living 

But it's only just a state of mind 

I've been doing my best but there's one regret 

That I live in this state of mind 

Oh, I've been thinkin' that I'm not living 

But it's only just a state of mind 

Time to roll the dice, close my eyes and let it ride 

Oh, I've been thinkin' that I'm not living 

But it's only just a state of mind 

I've been doing my best but there's one regret 

That I live in this state of mind 

Oh, I've been thinkin' that I'm not living 

But it's only just a state of mind 

I've been doing my best but there's one regret 

That I live in this state of mind
